It sounds like it was surely named after a person but according to Larousse Gastronomique the English name is a corruption of its French nickname Jean-doré.

Why is john dory so expensive. Upon tasting them youll first notice their texture. But I dont mind this. This means that only about a third of the whole fish you buy is meat.

John Dory are known to spawn off the coast of New South Wales in late summer and autumn at depths of 50 to 100 metres. This is why you dont typically find them prepared whole. However searching around and on the Web I came across an interesting phenomena that led to my post.

The rest is the bones fins and the head. Unless Fear the Walking Dead does not appreciate just how valuable John Dorie is to the rebooted series. John Dory are taken primarily as a bycatch of the South East Fishery.

An expensive delicacy in Southern Europe where they prefer to grill it. John Dory has a unique almost nutty. When grilling a whole fish like this one make sure the surface is dry.

Next was the sheer clamp a 58-thick by 1-12-wide piece of Douglas-fir that extends from stem to transom passing through notches in each of the frame tops. It is not far short of Dover Sole in. Theres a catch excuse the fish pun.

Our one caution is. A John Dory only has about a 30 yield. They are trawled from depths of between 50m and 200m off New South Wales and eastern Victoria.
